Oh yes, you've done a nice accurate job Moose, thanks.
I'll stick to my personal interpretation as to the colours for the
ultra light purple/magenta in the center still remains a distractor
and the smooth fuzziness of the lower petals doesn't really work with
the rest.
I know you start from what the - sometimes faithful - sensor recorded
when I start from - often bad - memory ;-)
Call me artsy :-(
Thanks again
